Product overview

Corsair introduced the VENGEANCE DDR5 family on October 27, 2021; this 16GB (1x16) 5200 MT/s CL40 kit is part of that line and is tuned for Intel platforms via XMP 3.0.Sourcecorsair.com

Positioned as a budget DDR5 option, it exists to provide an affordable, single‑DIMM entry point to DDR5. With 16GB capacity, DDR5‑5200 speed, and CL40 at 1.25V, it suits budget Intel 600/700/800‑series builds for everyday use and light‑to‑moderate gaming, and it’s a sensible start if you plan to add a second matching stick later for dual‑channel. It remains an active product listing on Corsair’s site (not discontinued). A notable perk is on‑module voltage regulation that works with Corsair iCUE to create and save custom XMP 3.0 profiles.Sourcecorsair.com
